Hospitality was fantastic! £10 gets you anything you want when certain staff are on duty.
Excellent location for whisky trail. Very clean and large spacious rooms (cupboard was almost another room). Very clean facilities with a reasonably sized shower. Very friendly staff. Will definitely visit again.
Set in the centre of town, this simple B&B in a 19th-century coaching inn is an 11-minute walk from the Glenfiddich Distillery and a 15-minute walk from Balvenie Castle.
